Condensation may refer to: *
Condensation Condensation is the change of the state of matter from the gas phase into the liquid phase, and is the reverse of vaporization. The word most often refers to the water cycle. It can also be defined as the change in the state of water vapor to ...
, the change in matter of a substance to a denser phase *
DNA condensation DNA condensation refers to the process of compacting DNA molecules ''in vitro'' or ''in vivo''. Mechanistic details of DNA packing are essential for its functioning in the process of gene regulation in living systems. Condensed DNA often has surp ...
, the process of compacting DNA molecules *
Cloud condensation nuclei Cloud condensation nuclei (CCNs), also known as cloud seeds, are small particles typically 0.2  µm, or one hundredth the size of a cloud droplet. CCNs are a unique subset of aerosols in the atmosphere on which water vapour condenses. This c ...
, airborne particles required for cloud formation *
Condensation (aerosol dynamics) An aerosol is a suspension of fine solid particles or liquid droplets in air or another gas. Aerosols can be natural or anthropogenic. Examples of natural aerosols are fog or mist, dust, forest exudates, and geyser steam. Examples of anthropogen ...
, a phase transition from gas to liquid * Condensation cloud, observable at large explosions in humid air * Condensation reaction, in chemistry, a chemical reaction between two molecules or moieties * Condensation algorithm, in computer science, a computer vision algorithm * Condensation (graph theory), in mathematics, a directed acyclic graph formed by contracting the strongly connected components of another graph * Dodgson condensation, in mathematics, a method invented by Lewis Carroll for computing the determinants of square matrices *
Bose–Einstein condensation Bose–Einstein may refer to: * Bose–Einstein condensate ** Bose–Einstein condensation (network theory) * Bose–Einstein correlations * Bose–Einstein statistics In quantum statistics, Bose–Einstein statistics (B–E statistics) describe ...
, a state of matter of a dilute gas in which quantum effects become apparent on a macroscopic scale *
Condensation (psychology) In Freudian psychology, a condensation (german: Verdichtung) is when a single idea (an image, memory, or thought) or dream object stands for several associations and ideas. In dreams/symptoms/jokes Freud considered that "dreams are brief, meagre ...
Condensed may refer to: *
Condensed font In metal typesetting, a font is a particular size, weight and style of a typeface. Each font is a matched set of type, with a piece (a " sort") for each glyph. A typeface consists of a range of such fonts that shared an overall design. In mod ...
, a typeface drawn narrower than normal width *
Condensed milk Condensed milk is cow's milk from which water has been removed (roughly 60% of it). It is most often found with sugar added, in the form of ''sweetened condensed milk'' (SCM), to the extent that the terms "condensed milk" and "sweetened condens ...
, milk with water removed
